CollegeTook this course during Winter 2021. This is my second math class with Professor Garfield. His PowerPoints are clear and straight to the point. The weekly quizzes all based on hw and lecture. There was no midterm. The final basically worth 2 or 3 quizzes. He also taught us some Mathematica codes, which is very useful. Choose him if you can.
Peter is definitely an awesome professor. I have taken his Math 4A in the fall, Math 6A in the winter, and now am taking his Math 4B. Got two A+s for the two completed courses. He will never fail you. His grading includes 50% HW, 40% Quiz & final exam, and 10% participation of his OH and nectir posts.
Garfield isn't the best at teaching but his classes are definitely easy to get a good grade in with a basic understanding of the material. His GS page is extremely well organized. He gave weekly quizzes, no midterm, and lectures and homework posted mon, weds, and fri of every week plus a final. Gave lots of hw extensions. Overall, great prof!
Took him for Math 4A and 6A. He really does care about his students and the class is very organized. Gauchospace is very easy to navigate and there are 3 homeworks a week with lectures accordingly. Only downside he takes a while to grade weekly quizzes. The homework/quiz questions are a lot harder than in lecture so go to office hours or mathlab!
Garfield teaches math in a very succinct and efficient manner. Him and his TA's have been great for all my courses, and I recommend him for everyone. He is very flexible with homework, and the grading is very generous. Take him for all your classes!
He's a really friendly and understanding guy. He pushes back HW for the class when asked and it's weekly quizzes and a final so you can mess up and not ruin your grade. The quizzes/HW are a lot harder than his lectures prepare you for though, so make sure you get help if you need it.
